filthy, dangerous thing! Because the life of a toothbrush
is short. Soon its bristles become softand scraggly, rendering it
incapable of keeping the teeth healthily clean. Paste-caked, food-
clogged and germ-laden, aa it usually was, it was a constant threat.
No wonder it has been condemned and is rapidly disappearing
from the scene of dental service.
In its place has come the new, modern, hygienic Lykolene

MENKING OFPAY
SPLITTING LAW
, Ruling Does Not Apply
To Congress Clerks,
. McSwain Says
By RAYMOND CLAPPER
Untted Press Correspondent
. (Coprrishted. 1032, br United Presa)
WASHINGTON, Aug. 29—Laws
against salary (putting or sublet-
ting of Jobg in the House of Rep-
resentatives do not (pply to such
practices involving clerks to Con-
gressmen, according to the inter-
pretation of some members.
Among those taking this posi-
tion is Rep. J. J. McSwain, Dem.,
S. C., who answer criticism of his
political opponents as follows:
"I have a large number of tele-
grams from Senators and Repre-
sentatives, and able lawyers, to the
effect that the sections of the code
referred to have no reference to
the secretaries and stenographers
appointed by members of Congress
for their personal service, but re-
fer to those officers who are strict-
ly employes of the House of Rep-
resentatives or of the Senate as a
corporate body."
Check Signed Over.
McSwain has been criticized for
carrying on the House payroll aa
his clerk a young man who was
attending the University of South
Carolina. His answer was that
while the young man was absent
at school his work here was done
by others to whom he signed over
his government paychecks.
' Some of his political opponents
are citing a law which forbids
"any person in the employ of the
House of Representatives" to sub-
let any portion of his duties, or
to permit or require him to divide
his salary with another.
Other members have explained
the listing of absentees or tela,
tives on the House payroll as a
matter of convenience. insisting
that the money actually was paid
to the persons who did the work,
The question arises over what
constitutes an employe' of the
__ House.— Those whehotd the taw
- does not apply argue that a Con-
gressman’s clerk is not .exactly a
House employe, altho carried on
the House payroll and paid out of
the House appropriation. They
argue that a Congressman is giv-
en complete control in the em-
ployment of his elerks.
- Status Described.
The status of clerks is described
in Section 92 of the U. S. code an-
notated, Title 2, as follows:
"Appropriations made by Con-
gress for clerk hire for members,
delegates and resident commis-
sioners, shall be paid by the clerk
of the House of Representatives to
one or two persons to be desig-
nated by each member, delegate
or resident commissioner. The
names of such persons to be plac-
ed upon the roll of employes of
I the’House of Representatives, to-
gether with the amount to be paid
each; and Representtives, dele-
gats and resident commissioners-
elect to Congress shall likewise be
entitled to make such designa-
tions; provlvded that such persons
shall be subject to removal at any
time by such member, delegate or
resident commissioner with or
without cause."

By DR. FRANK THONE
(clones Servie Staff Writer
ITHACA, N. Y„ Aug. 29.—
X-rays can speed up the processes
of evolution, and they can also re-
verse its direction, undoing
changes which they themselves
have caused. This was announced
at the meeting of the sixth Inter-
national Congress of Genetics here
by Dr. N. W. Timofeeff-Ressovsky.
The discovery of the evolution-
reversing power of x-rays was
made as the result of researches
conducted at the Kaiser-Wilhelm
Institute for Brain Research in
Berlin.
Dr. Timofeeff-Ressovsky work-
ed with fruit files, classic experi-
mental animals in genetics, using
the X-ray technique for producing
changes developed by Prof. H. J.
Muller of the University of Texas.
Bombardment of their reproduc-
tive cells with X-rays caused
marked changes in color, shape,
size, etc., of eyes, wings and other
body parts in their offspring. Dr. j
Timofeeff-Ressovsky discovered
that a second bombardment in-
flicted on these same offspring
would ofen reverse the changes,
causing the third generation to
have a normal apeparance again.
He also found that the first gen-
eration X-raying ften produced
opposite Changes at the same
time; for example, producing red
eyes and white eyes among the
offspring of normal brownish-eyed
files.
From his results he argued that
the effects of an X-ray bombard-
ment are not merely destructive
of the genes, as has frequently
been stated. He pointed out that
while the production of an abnor-
mality might look like a destruc-
tive effect, the return to normal-
cy~by a second X-ray bombard-
ment makes this' conclusion ab-
surd. = )
